Oh your stomach grumbled from being hungry

Too bad, you're dead

Also is their hearing had enough that they don't hear people breathing

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 4 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Why does the text box look like it's from Morrowind?

Kill a god? How could you kill a god? What a grand and intoxicating innocence.

This is the end... The bitter, bitter end...

Live next to a waterfall and you'll be fine.

[–] rmuk@feddit.uk 3 points 8 hours ago (1 children)

Smart Character 1: "This waterfall provides fresh water for drinking and farming, a plentiful source of energy, ideal fishing grounds, and camouflages us from the predators senses such that we can talk and act freely." Smart Character 2: "We must not live here." Smart Character 1: "Of course not."

[–] TheOakTree@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 hours ago

I'd imagine the main risk of such a location would be the threat of other people looking to control it for themselves. But, of course, that risk is probably never mentioned.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 10 hours ago

Maybe the smell will drive them away.

[–] kameecoding@lemmy.world 22 points 22 hours ago (3 children)

My biggest gripe with the movie is that these aliens are highly specialized to hear things, but supposedly they can't hear your loud ass heartbeat from a few meters away, that's kinda stupid.

[–] Underwaterbob@sh.itjust.works 8 points 10 hours ago

Yeah, and the waterfall blocked their hearing entirely. Might be a good idea to go live there, even. Especially if you're, y'know, pregnant.

And some random guy in his house discovers the sound that messes them up. Apparently the military failed to try playing loud sounds at aliens with super sensitive hearing. Just never occurred to them to try that I guess.

Annddd, if their hearing is that crazy sensitive, they'd be jumping at every random raccoon fart and bird dropping. There's no way they could pick humans out over any distance. Sound is just a pressure wave through a medium, and doesn't actually get that far with an appreciable amount of energy left over. These things would have to be everywhere to be such a threat, yet you hardly see any in the movie.

Maybe entertaining, but it holds up to precisely zero scrutiny.

[–] CitizenKong@lemmy.world 10 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

They're also pretty loud themselves but somehow don't alarm all the others when they crash through a window or something. These movies are highly illogical if you think about them for more than five minutes.

[–] buttnugget@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

Furthermore, a deaf person is the least suited for such an environment. They would make more noise than any hearing person and not even realize it.

[–] x4740N@lemmy.world 2 points 10 hours ago

Can't hear breathing either

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 14 hours ago

I feel like a fixture that lights and immediately snuffs a match for you would be the ideal toilet accessory

Taco Bell would go bankrupt

[–] TomMasz@lemmy.world 40 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It would definitely remove IBS from the gene pool.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 9 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

No, only the strongest weapon-grade IBS would survive!!

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

My ass can kill death angels at two hundred paces. Three hundred if you get me some toum.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 4 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

My ass can kill death angels at two hundred paces.

And you don't even have IBS :D.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago) (1 children)

I just like dancing. these cheeks clap

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

Death by thunderous clap.

(A war crime detectable by LIGO.)

i gotta make a platformer video game. you gain weight by picking up collectables, and once you're dummy thicc enough when you run the sound of your booty cheeks clapping kills enemies. but also running loses you weight. we'll call it jimmy clap corn

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 24 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Still mad the second movie wasn't called A Too Quiet Place

Not to mention how quickly these creature without any weapons managed to overcome armies on Earth.

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

One of the dumbest movies I've ever seen.

The entire US army can't defeat these creatures but this woman solves the whole problem with a loud speaker and a shot gun.

Sorry for ranting, but damn, it's one of my biggest movie disappointments, right up they with, The Phantom Menace and Valerion.

[–] buttnugget@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I love The Phantom Menace and Valerion damn it lol. And A Quiet Place. I just kinda turn my brain down real low I guess!

[–] Professorozone@lemmy.world 1 points 1 hour ago

I asked a colleague (we're engineers) once when she told me she was seeing a stupid movie, "Doesn't it bother you when they totally ignore physics?"

She said "It used to but then my boyfriend told me to get over it, it's just a movie. And I did. " LOL.

I didn't like those movies but hey, sit back and enjoy if you like.

Modern weapons notoriously good at killing.

You telling me those things could take out predator drones too?

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 day ago

Wow, you're right. You should go add that to the goofs section for the movie on imdb.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works -1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You should contact the writers and explain to them in detail how silent but deadly and bad ass you are with a sword. Their whole premise is flawed. They should make a new movie where you kill all the aliens.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 4 points 23 hours ago (2 children)

broski, you are telling me no military got the idea to give their soldiers compound bows and such? yes of course that is flawed writing.

[–] Alcoholicorn@mander.xyz 1 points 10 hours ago

Any bow over like 15# toys makes a pretty audible sound

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 0 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Also I'm real good with knots and ride my bike real fast like pschewww I bet if they'd made me the protagonist I could have died off a cliff in like FIVE MINUTES.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 2 points 11 hours ago

prime example of the "appeal to ridicule" fellacy

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Yeah. And when noise is everywhere it gets disorienting af. Those creatures wouldn't know where to attack.
